Abstract
An optical component is improved in workability during assembly operation thereof and makes it possible to easily position an optical fiber. A first ferrule is press-fitted into one end of a central hole of a connecting member, and a second ferrule is press-fitted into the other end of the central hole of the connecting member. An optical fiber is inserted through the first and second ferrules. A coating which coats an intermediate portion of the optical fiber of an optical fiber cord is accommodated in a communicating portion of the central hole of the connecting member in a manner such that the coating is brought into abutment with the first and second ferrules.
